The early cars were fitted with an 'econometer'... Basically fed off the inlet manifold vacuum, the gauge I lovingly knicknamed the 'Thrashometer' as the longer it spent pinned to the ceiling the harder you were trying, and the arrow just told you, you weren't trying hard enough... The design idea was to encourage frugal driving....
